Did they get to pick their whore or were they assigned at random?

That was my first reaction too. If I can't pick my whore, don't be surprised if the one I get feels depressed during the voyage and jumps overboard.

They also rounded up their street whores in France and shipped them to New Orleans to marry the men already here.

Most of this is known by posters who grew up in Louisiana. It's a topic of many a teen giggle in Louisiana History, usually taken in the 8th grade.
